Colin Meloy has done an outstanding job this book hooked me in straight from the start. In this book Prue life has an unexpected turn of events when a group of Crows take Prue’s brother Mac into to the Impassable Wilderness Prue being brave as journeys into the Impassable Wilderness to find her brother.

I absolutely loved this book I fell in love with is from the start I loved how it was so well put together I think anyone who is a strong reader could read this and they will love it the genre for this book is Fantasy and I think the theme is Friendship

The Series of Unfortunate Events: The Austere Academy by Lemony Snicket’s

Preview of pervious books:

In the series the Baudelaire’s have got the horrible news that their parents perished in a fire so they only have their fortune but they can’t use it till they are old enough so sent to live with their horrible relative Count Olaf and Olaf is trying to get his hands on there fortune and everywhere they go he follows creating mischief.

Lemony Snicket has done it again in this book Violet, Klaus and Sunny are sent to boarding school where there motto is you will die but that’s not the least of their concerns as they have a new gym teacher Coach Genghis who looks quite a lot like Count Olaf but luckily they have their friends Isadora and Duncan who are triplets [you will see why they are triplets in the book.]

I absolutely loved this book as it always had an unexpected turn of events also in this book the descriptions are amazing there are so many descriptive words I would recommend this book to anyone even adults as it just shows that how unfortunate someone’s life can be.

Personality: Violet is a really intelligent girl who loves to invent lots of things she is also the oldest of 3 kids [Klaus and Sunny]

Why I like her: I like her as she is a really positive girl also she is a great role model for her younger siblings and she loves inventing which makes her a creative girl.

Little sneak peak at the storyline: Violet, Klaus and Sunny have to live another chapter of misery but this time there at Prufrock Prep this might sound fine but the motto of this school is ”you will die” and to top it off Count Olaf will be back. Will they keep their fortune?. Full review coming soon.

This book was about Tom’s quest with the spook Tom is the 7th child of 7 kids and that means he has lots of talents which gives him advantage as a spook’s apprentice Tom had lot’s of bump when he was the Spook’s apprentice like Alice, Mother Malkin he had many moments where it looked like he would die

I would recommend this book for years 3’s & 4’s. It’s genre is a fantasy and a little bit of horror and drama. This book has hardly any pictures so it’s mostly just words and it has a sneak peak of the next book at the end other than that I would give this a:

Personality: Alice is a relative to Mother Malkin [the villain] Tom can’t tell if she is evil or good as she helped him but she does have pointy shoes and that means she is evil or is she?

Why I like her: I like her as she is mysterious and you never know what she is going to do and while reading you get a ton of questions like; is she a witch?

Little sneak peak at the story line: Tom is the 7th child of 7 kids and that means he has lots of talents which gives him advantage as a spook’s apprentice as a spook’s apprentice he is supposed to kill witches and burry them so they can’t escape but can he kill them or will he die? and will he survive as a spook’s apprentice?. Full review coming soon.

My favourite part in this book was the part on Meteoroids, Comets and Asteroids which is in the Space section liked it because it had lots of facts that I didn’t really know; like between Mars and Jupiter there are Asteroids it is called the Asteroids Belt and that Asteroids are big lumps of rock or metal that travel through space and Asteroids are too big to be Meteoroids but to small to be a Planet.

This book is a book I would recommend to year 3 and 4’s also some very confident year 2’s for an introduction to Science.
